Flaggers will direct traffic Sept. 7 while crews complete signal cabinet installation
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – The busy intersection of Lemay Avenue and Prospect Road will temporarily operate as a four-way stop on Sunday, Sept. 7, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., as City of Fort Collins crews complete critical traffic signal repairs.
Earlier this year, a crash severely damaged the traffic signal system at the intersection. While the signal has been rebuilt, this weekend’s work—installation of a new traffic cabinet—will finalize the repairs. During the installation, the traffic signals will be shut off, and flaggers will guide vehicles safely through the intersection.
What drivers need to know
- All vehicles must stop: Drivers in all directions will be required to stop at the intersection.
- Expect delays: Significant congestion is possible; drivers are strongly encouraged to use alternate routes.
- Timing may vary: Although work is scheduled from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., crews may complete the work earlier.
The City advises motorists to plan to minimize delays and avoid the area if possible.
